AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The network information or service and the original TV program information come from different platforms. When the user switches channels, the digital TV must receive information across different platforms and play it on the screen, which will easily cause longer buffering time
The original small and simple channel information may not be enough to provide enough information, and it is also difficult to eliminate the sense of fluency caused by buffering time

[0040] [Channel Information Prompt Method Embodiment]

[0041] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 A flow chart of an embodiment of a channel information prompting method provided by the present invention is shown, which is used to reveal that in the process of channel switching, judging the mode of switching channels of the user to provide different channel information without excessively increasing the computational burden a way of doing it. The method described above can be implemented on television devices such as digital television (DTV) and Internet television (IPTV) that can provide multiple channels for displaying video and audio content, or display devices with similar functions. Please follow the tips in the instructions below and refer to Figures 2A to 2E The schematic diagrams of the display unit of the display device are shown separately, so as to facilitate understanding the display modes of different channel information. Figures 2A to 2E An exemplary displ...

Abstract

A method for providing channel information is illustrated. The method includes receiving a command for switching channels when a first channel content is displayed on a display unit; determining whether the command indicates a continuous switching mode or a discrete switching mode; displaying the first channel content and descriptive information of a plurality of channels being switched until a second channel among the channels being switched is selected at the continuous switching mode; displaying preview information of the second channel to replace the first channel content and loading the second channel content when the second channel is selected at the continuous switching mode or when the second channel is switched according to the command at the discrete switching mode; displaying the second channel content when loading completed. The data quantity of the preview information is larger than that of the description information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information prompting method and system, and in particular to a channel information prompting method and system. Background technique [0002] In modern society, in order to pursue a higher quality of life and entertainment, the fidelity of the image and the natural digital TV when switching channels, the original channel screen disappears and there is a buffer period before the content of the new channel appears, and there will be no content displayed on the screen. Buffering of pictures is a common phenomenon in current digital TV. Due to the existence of the above-mentioned buffer time every time the channel is switched, it may easily cause the user to be unable to confirm whether the command to switch channels has been received by the TV device, and must wait for the buffer time to pass to confirm whether the TV device has received the command before continuing to issue the next command troubled. [0003] Also ...
